In his early books, Danny Wallace was the new Tony Hawks, taking on silly challenges and recounting them in amusing ways. With ''Charlotte Street'', his first entirely fictional work, he seems to be moving into territory inhabited by [[:Category:Mike Gayle|Mike Gayle]], that of bloke-lit. It seems a decent fit, as his book ''Yes Man'' had elements of bloke-lit, despite being based on actual events. It may have suffered from a twee ending, but it offered enough to suggest that this is a field Danny Wallace could work well in.
